Weather, Easter, and other musings
Our friends Aaron and Serena had their second child (a daughter) almost two weeks ago. They came down for a brief visit for our St. Patrick's Day party on the 15th (when she was only 3 days old?!). Hopefully they're all doing well.
Last Friday we had about 12 inches of snow in Crystal Lake. I had taken the day off and was able to enjoy not having to dig my car out of the train station parking lot. I pulled Nate around on the sled on Saturday.
Our street was not plowed until the storm was almost over (and, as it figures, right after I finished clearing the driveway) so I was concerned that all that heavy wet slop was going to snap the pole in half. Thankfully, new mailbox survived the pummeling and the wood did not break.
Easter was spent in Des Plaines with
helloheather's family. The sun did not disappear as predicted and Nate and I spent some time burning off energy outside and soaking our shoes in melting snow.
